This release is something kind of special, if not realy odd.
Trippin on Sunshine starts very atmospheric, slightly depressed.
But where you'd expect happy hardcore breaks and a repetitive hardcore kickdrum to drop in you hear chopped junglistic breaks instead.
storming it's way towards a first drop no other signs of happy hardcore are shown expect in the intro, to then find another way into this track in the breakdown.
A kind of nogalastic voice sings the title of the track, with not much more to it than just the synthetic sound of it, but at the same time this makes this track so catchy.
Even though there's no over-use of elements, or elements too much tout court, they manage to sound all chopped together randomly, this track sounding weird is no coincidence.
The b-side is on the same tip, but the female vocal in this track sounds, the title says it all, much more funky melody-wise.
classic breakbeats used in the intro aswell, and a more party-rinsing feeling to it than the a-side, with ragga vocals programmes shouting "dubplate style, COME ON!!"
other than that you can expect some scratch samples, downtempo breaks in between the faster jungle chops, and as said before an awesome combination of happy hardcore style female vocals and breakbeat usage.
To sum up all of the above this release is something that could appeal to you if you like jungle or happy hardcore, but at the same time it might not work for you at all.
This one was categorised as hardcore and breakbeat, but jungle is certainly a part of these tracks, no matter how odd it makes these 2 pieces of neutral creativity.
